...
The so-called troubles.
First came the invitations from the major forces, banquets, balls, afternoon teas with noble ladies, and so on...
After turning them all down one by one,
Lin Suo realized that Meinehoer, who he had entrusted to sell a batch of medicines, had unilaterally breached the contract, although they did pay a small price.
But it was just nauseating.
The money from selling medicines was no longer of importance to him. With his current wealth, it was all small change.
On the other hand, since establishing a cooperative relationship with the Goblin Technology Research Institute,
there was no need for him to pay for the two Level Seven materials, Memory Alloy and Liquid Metal, anymore.
Three words: Use as needed.
The only caveat was that however much he used, he would have to exchange with the Goblin scholars knowledge of equal value.
In the Empire's upper echelon squabbles, Goblins never participate.
